Hastings

[Hornchurch "O"]

I hope their pitch can put up with all this rain.

Any inspections planned?

[Uncle Urchin]

currently okay and can take more rain...east sussex pitches tend to drain well due to the chalk undercore..

[Mach the Knife]

Agree, Bognor is another example, lovely pitch

[Hornchurch "O"]

Cheers.

just making sure i didn't have to divert to Nottingham tomorrow

[Eastside Urchin]

been down in sussex all day today and the rain was just as bad as when we had the floods last spring/summer but saying that it did clear up around eastbourne by 1-1.30 so hopefully should be ok

Unc, no chalk in this part of Sussex, sandstone fyi! The chalk starts a few miles to the west towards Eastbourne.

Weather, well its raining again, the pitch in hastings does drain well. A few weeks ago we had the only game on in Sussex when it tipped down and we beat Heybridge! Guess it depends on how much more rain falls tonight but our website will give details in the morning.

anyway lets hope that all is well tomorrow as we are all looking forward to our visit...if you get the chance post us an update on here tomorrow please...

Hope you have a good one in Hastings tomorrow. Beware, it's onroad parking, though it's a nice long sloped tree lined road.

 

You'll get a good greeting by thier lady director and hopefully the bar will be open good and early. I was assisted in purloining a programme while they were still being counted. Spot the 'interesting' steward The public bar is titchy, but they have a large function room attached. The food flap doesn't seem to open til shortly before the game, but i can recommend the sausage and chips Good sized seated covered area, but watch out for the pigeon poo!

 

Oh, and for the guys watch out for the cheerleaders

we will m'lady...we will....

toughie for you also manana but I shall be having a little bet on you nicking it although the sensible money will be the draw...

good luck...

Thanx Uncs

 

But, it is looking very doubtful for going ahead tomorrow. Keep getting torrential down pours.

 

As for the result - It always depends on which Angels team turns up. The one that plays rubbish or the team that really goes for it

 

 

[Eastside Urchin]

rain should stop by midnight and the forecast for tomorrow is sun,sun and sun

I forgot to mention, thier 'danger man' is a big black fella, his brother is fairly useful too. When we played them he couldn't hit a barn door, but i think it was an off day
